Yesterday was a big day for gamers that love games set in the Star Wars universe! At this year’s Star Wars Celebration, not only was Star Wars Jedi: Survivor announced but also an iconic old-school title! Aspyr is officially bringing Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords to the Nintendo Switch on June 8th! The standalone sequel to KOTOR (Knight of the Old Republic), the award-winning KOTOR II comes to the Switch with HD cinematics, textures, UI, and resolution to boot.
For those unaware of its story; KOTOR II takes place following the fall of the Jedi Order as the Republic is their only solace. Playing as an exiled Jedi, you and your band of allies are tasked with making difficult, galaxy changing choices that shape your destiny. In this RPG you’ll be able to follow the force towards the light side and the dark side, giving you the power to either save or rule the galaxy.
Key Features:
A Standalone Sequel: Experience the follow-up to the acclaimed Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic in this original RPG epic set in the darkest days of the Old Republic.
Choose Your Destiny: Discover your past and make difficult choices that aren’t as clear-cut as “good or evil.” Each decision can have a significant impact on your story and your squad. Will you uphold the Jedi Order, or lead the galaxy to ruin?
Master the Force: Choose from three different Jedi classes, each able to wield specific Force powers, and customize your characters with unique skills and abilities.
Lead Your Crew: Command a party of diverse crewmates, each with their own strengths, alignments and nuanced back stories. Your actions will influence your crew’s destinies, but not everyone may agree with the choices you make…
The Sith Lords Restored Content DLC: Expand your experience even further with this incredible collection of content featuring new crew dialogue and interactions, a bonus mission starring HK-47, and a new revamped ending, coming as free DLC post-launch.
